Munro #76 & #77 - The amazing Beinn Alligin, this was a bit of a challenge to film with the heat/flys.. hope you enjoy the video 😄 James

Greta vid, cheers. We are heading up there in a few weeks so fingers crossed for some good weather like you had (but without the flies of course)

Looks Amazing, and that weather 👍

Thanks Andrew - would love weather like that right now!!! Cheers, James

Wow amazing ❤ trying to decide if I have the nerve for the horns

Hello James, thank you ever so much for this one. Ben Alligin is my favourite mountain, though I couldn’t climb the horns because I have no head for heights unfortunately. But I love this mountain anyway. So thanks again for showing me the whole traverse!

Excellent video. Looks an absolutely cracking route 👍

I've just commented but looks like it didn't save ❓ Anyway ~ shorter version. This is my next hike. Where you came down is where I attempted to go up ~ didn't manage. The route you took here is where I plan to follow. However, don't think I'd manage the horns so I'll turn back before reaching them. Thank you for sharing this.

Lovely video sir. Heading up in September but will probably stay further south. I did Ben More and Stob Binnien in early October pre-covid and found it the best balance; still fairly long days, less traffic than high summer, yet early enough to avoid any chance of winter conditions. And didn't see a midge. Are they worse in coastal areas such as Torridon?

@ScottishMunroJourney

Thank you 😁 yes Sept/Oct is my favourite time, starts to quieten down.. Torridon & the west seem to be hotspots for the midge.. just keep moving and you will be fine 😁👍 Cheers, James

Excellent stuff, looks amazing in every direction......pity about the flies/midges. I remember getting bitten near to death in the Highlands years ago, I was covered in red spots for the next month.

Hi James, crackin vid, lovely hills. Done them a couple years ago and got a light dusting of snow. I was a bit wary of scrambling the horns as well, turned out fine. Some lovely shots with the drone. ATB Frank.

Great video James, what a stunning day to be in Torridon. Quite possibly my favourite location in Scotland - it has something unique about it. I bagged these back in 2014 along with Beinn Eighe and Liathach, spending a couple of nights in the Torridon Inn. Great trip! I’ve actually got some footage from my old GoPro Hero2 - maybe I’ll make a video from it one day, although the quality is really bad in comparison to modern camera gear. Cheers, Douglas

Nice one. Did it with my dog a couple of years ago and no issues crossing the Horns. Worth mentioning that if the grass is wet then the by-pass route on the right side will be more dangerous than going along the ridge. The consequences of a slip and fall would probably be terminal.

I wonder if it is feasible to climb Beinn Dearg after the Beinn Alligin traverse given its close proximity.

it probably would, on a long summers day!

I climbed Liathach during a July night then Beinn Dearg after it then I was going to climb Beinn Alligin. My Labrador put his paw down and refused.

How is it for grazing animals? I'm looking for walks I can let the dogs run for as long as possible. One dog is OK but the other is a pain.
